Indications for Use
The TD-3252 Blood Glucose plus Blood pressure Monitoring System is intended for use in the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood from the finger and the following alternative sites: the palm, the forearm, the upper-arm, the calf, and the thigh. It is intended for use by healthcare professionals and people with diabetes mellitus at home as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes control program. It is not intended for the diagnosis of or screening for diabetes mellitus. The alternative site testing in this system can be used only during steady-state blood glucose conditions. This system is not intended for use on neonates. The system is also intended to be used to measure non-invasively the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate of an adult individual at home. The blood pressure is measured by using a technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the arm. The cuff circumference is limited to 9.4” ~ 13.8”. This system offers either cable or wireless communication function which is able to transmit the test result to other devices, such as PC or data receiver. This monitor has some speaking function but is not intended for use by the visually impaired.
Device Story
TD-3252 is a combination device for home monitoring of blood glucose and blood pressure. Glucose measurement uses capillary whole blood samples; blood pressure measurement uses an inflatable arm cuff (9.4"-13.8" circumference). Device provides systolic/diastolic pressure, pulse rate, and glucose levels. Operated by patients or healthcare professionals. Includes speaking function and data transmission capabilities (cable or wireless) to PCs or receivers. Aids in monitoring diabetes control programs; not for diagnostic screening. Benefits include integrated management of glucose and cardiovascular metrics in a single system.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided in the document. The document focuses on regulatory clearance and indications for use.
Technological Characteristics
Combination system for glucose monitoring and non-invasive oscillometric blood pressure measurement. Features include an inflatable arm cuff, glucose test strip interface, and data communication modules (cable/wireless). Includes a speaking function. Operates as a standalone monitor with data export capabilities.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adults with diabetes mellitus for quantitative glucose measurement in capillary whole blood (finger, palm, forearm, upper-arm, calf, thigh) and non-invasive systolic/diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate monitoring. Not for neonates, diabetes diagnosis/screening, or visually impaired users.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A glucose test system is a device intended to measure glucose quantitatively in blood and other body fluids. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is solely intended for use as a drink to test glucose tolerance, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

## L. Test Principle:
The glucose measurement is based on electrical potential caused by the reaction of glucose with the reagents contained on the strip’s electrodes. The glucose in the sample is oxidized by the enzyme glucose oxidase, producing gluconolactone. The current resulting from this enzymatic reaction is measured and converted to glucose concentration by the meter. The magnitude of the current is proportional to the concentration of glucose in the sample.

Established in the original submission (k062800).
In addition, a new method comparison study was performed with 120 capillary fingerstick samples where the participants tested themselves. The range of glucose concentrations of the samples was 31 – 548 mg/dL by the reference method (YSI-2300). The glucose concentrations less than 40 and greater than 400 mg/dL were obtained by spiking the samples to desired concentrations. The linear regression line for the accuracy study was, y = 1.014x – 1.228, r = 0.997. Using the ISO 15197 format the following were obtained:
<75 mg/dL
| Within ± 5 mg/dL | Within ± 10 mg/dL | Within ± 15 mg/dL |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 19/21 (90%) | 21/21 (100%) | 21/21 (100%) |
≥75 mg/dL

Page 7 of 7
4. Specimen Sampling and Handling:
This device is intended to be used with capillary whole blood from the finger and other alternate sites (palm, forearm, upper-arm, calf and thigh only. Since the whole blood sample is applied directly to the test strip, there are no special handling or storage issues.

No calibration is required by the user. The meter accommodates auto-coding, in that each strip is designed and manufactured to code the meter appropriately when the strip is inserted.
6. Quality Control:
There are two levels of control (Normal and High) not supplied with the device. Users are instructed to test control solutions when the meter is first used in order to verify that they can use the meter correctly. In addition they are instructed to run a control when a new vial of test strips is opened, when they suspect the meter or strips are not working correctly, if test results appear to be abnormally high or low, or are not consistent with the patient's symptoms, if the meter is dropped, to check their technique, if the test strip bottle had been left open or stored outside its recommended temperature range, and each time the batteries are changed.
P. Other Supportive Instrument Performance Characteristics Data Not Covered In The "Performance Characteristics" Section above:
The sponsor performed a readability assessment of the labeling and states that the user manual is written at an 8th grade level.
Q. Proposed Labeling:
